It finally happened last night - I finally had the retaliation of that fact that I'm going to have a baby. I've been through so much from the start of this pregnancy that I think I just wouldn't allow myself to feel too much - probably as a way to stay strong through it all. I haven't been able to really get in touch with my emotions and I've been wondering if it would ever happen. Last night it happened and boy did it happen. Out of nowhere while watching TV, I started to cry. I went over to my husband, sat on his lap and just started blabbering through my tears saying things like - We're going to have a baby! and I've waited my whole life for this! My goodness did the tears flow! It was 4 months worth of emotion coming out all at once. Maybe it was hearing the heart beat again or getting a glimpse of the baby during the ultrasound or finding out that everything really was okay (again). I don't know what triggered it, but it finally came and I'm so glad it did.
We went back for the ultrasound yesterday, but the technician was not a very nice woman and didn't really let me see the baby (never mind find out the sex). She rolled passed quickly and went straight to the area I was there to get scanned. I asked while I was there if I could get a peek, but she said no she didn't have time. She said, 'I showed you it was moving and the heartbeat was there - the kid is fine'. I really didn't see any of what she said - it just happened too fast and I was really disappointed. It wasn't very womanly of her to deny me a good look, but at least I know 'the kid is fine!'
Anyway, I'm feeling a lot better today. Hopefully, that will be the last my health problems and things will go a bit more smoothly from now on.
Recently, a magazine here in the UK issued their list of their Top 100 women in show business. This sparked conversation between Wayne and I and one rainy weekend when we had nothing to do, we compiled our own Top 20 lists. The rules were we had to judge on looks alone (not their physique) and only one token model was allowed. For fun, I thought I'd add our lists here for you to view and enjoy. Maybe it will even spark conversation between you and a friend or loved one. Wayne and I actually had a really good time creating our lists together - judging each other's taste in the opposite sex and laughing over how long it took for us to prioritize our selections. We still change the order every time we look at it! (although our top five have remained the same) Enjoy and feel free to comment!
